The WNMS Charger Reading Challenge(CRC) began September 3rd. This is our third year for the exciting Charger Reading Challange!

The CRC is an optional reading contest that involves reading books selected by WNMS teachers and discussing the books with the sponsoring teachers. All the books may be checked out from the WNMS library media center. The goal for students is to read 10 or more of the books from the list.

5th and 6th Grade students who complete the CRC will be invited to a special "Starbucks/Book Fair" Party in April. Parents of those students will also be invited to attend.

7th and 8th Grade students who complete the CRC will receive a Barnes and Noble giftcard and be able to go on a field trip to the Barnes and Noble in Fort Wayne.

Take a look at the list of books for the CRC and ask your student if they are ready to conquer the Charger Reading Challenge.
